We all know the first thing that comes to mind when you think of Amsterdam: drugs, partying and sex.

Forget about the drugs and partying for now, let’s talk about the sex. One of the city’s most notorious spots is the Red Light District with its live “window shopping”.

But what most people don’t know (or choose to ignore) is that most of the girls working in the district aren’t there by choice. Typically, the pimps that brought them there lured them with the promise of a dance career later on in the future.

Nour El Sayed has always been fascinated by photography and art. She spends most of her time trying to combine both and ending up with a triumph. After receiving her AS in Graphic Design, she decided to integrate all three and hoping that one day her work could be widely exhibited. If there's one thing she learnt in life it's that “In a time of destruction, create something.”

She also finds it amusing to write her bio in the third person and happily indulges herself.
